CLP Talk 07 - The Christian Family

This document discusses God's plan for the Christian family. It outlines three main purposes of the family: 1) to transmit life through procreation, 2) to teach and train leaders, and 3) to serve as a "domestic church." However, it notes that God's plan for the family is under attack in modern times as families lose their central importance and lasting relationships become more difficult. It concludes by offering suggestions for strengthening families, such as making a commitment to pray together, fathers taking responsibility, and seeking out other Christian couples. The overall message is that families need the Holy Spirit's power to uphold God's vision for marriage and family.

THE CHRISTIAN FAMILY

Christian Life Program: Talk 7


FAMILY IS
UNDER ATTACK.
What is
God’s PURPOSE
for marriage?
GOD’S PLAN FOR THE
FAMILY
BY: Kuya Rene Caballero
1 TRANSMISSION OF
LIFE
“The fundamental task of
the family is to SERVE LIFE,
to actualize in history the
original blessing of the
Creator—that of
transmitting by procreation
the divine image from
person to person.”
Familiaris Consortio 28
MALE and FEMALE, able to
multiply and fill the earth
Not independent individuals producing babies,
but HUSBAND and WIFE RAISING A FAMILY
The family is where we discover our purpose.

TEACHING & TRAINING


2 LEADERS
“Since parents have conferred life on their children,
they have a most solemn obligation to educate
their offspring. Hence, parents must be
acknowledged as the first and foremost educators
of their children. Their role as educators is so
decisive that scarcely anything can compensate
for their failure in it.”
SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL
“Parents have the first responsibility for the
education of their children. They bear witness to
this responsibility first by creating a home where
tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and
disinterested service are the rule.”

CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH


The family is a place to
TRANSMIT WISDOM
and VALUES.
A leader receives BASIC
TRAINING in his own
HOME.
3 DOMESTIC CHURCH
Parents, especially fathers, are
to be PRIESTS in their families.
The GOSPEL is TRANSMITTED
and RADIATES in the FAMILY.
GOD’S PLAN FOR THE
FAMILY IS NOT
HAPPENING.
God has
lost His
central
place in
the family.
The family
is losing its
importance.
Modern life has
made it difficult
for lasting
relationships
to develop.
The family is
under attack
by evil forces.
WHAT CAN WE
DO?
Make a decision.
Pray as a family.
FATHERS, assume full
responsibility for the
spiritual and material needs
of the family.
Learn more about
God’s plan for your
family.
Seek other
couples.
The family is God’s masterpiece.

The HOLY
FAMILY is
our MODEL.
We need the power of the HOLY SPIRIT
to build strong Christian families.
